Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras
Results of Review of Interim Financial Information
We have reviewed the interim consolidated statement of financial position of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2020, and the related interim consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated statement of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 20, 2020, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2019, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated statement of financial position from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
PETROBRAS
(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
1.1. Statement of compliance and authorization of unaudited consolidated interim financial statements
These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared and presented in accordance with IAS 34 – “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). They present the significant changes in the period, avoiding repetition of certain notes to the annual consolidated financial statements previously reported. Hence, they should be read together with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, which include the full set of notes.
These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors in a meeting held on May 14, 2020.
1.2. Reclassification of discontinued operation
After the additional sale of the Company’s interest in the subsidiary Petrobras Distribuidora (BR), carried out through a secondary public offering (follow-on), in July 2019, Petrobras is no longer the controlling shareholder of BR.
Furthermore, all requirements were met to classify this investment as a discontinued operation, in accordance with IFRS 5 - Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, since it represented a separate major line of business. Thus, the consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 had its line items reclassified, presenting net income, operating, investing and financing cash flows relating to this investment in separate line items, as a net amount for discontinued operations, for which further details are presented below:

2. Summary of significant accounting policies
The same accounting policies and methods of computation were followed in these unaudited consolidated interim financial statements as those followed in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019.
3. Context, resilience measures and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic
3.1. Context
In January 2020, China reported having identified a new variant of coronavirus, causing the disease COVID-19, which was spreading quickly in its population. On March 11, 2020, COVID-19 was a declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). Social isolation measures arising from this pandemic affected the global economic environment, reducing the demand for oil and its oil products and triggering a shock in the oil and gas industry.
Therefore, in early April, members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and other countries announced a new agreement providing for the reduction of their combined production by 9.7 million barrels per day (bpd) for May and June 2020, and other levels of reductions until the end of 2021. However, this agreement caused little effect on oil prices, which remained high volatile. The Company foresees Brent prices in the medium -term will be significantly lower than recent past, converging to US$ 50 in the long-term. Thus, the Company believes the current situation demands fast and urgent cost reduction measures.
3.2. Resilience measures
The Company, in line with the recommendations of the WHO and the Ministry of Health, announced measures to preserve the health of its employees and support the prevention of contagion in its administrative and operational areas, such as home office, reduced work shifts in operational areas to minimize the number of workers commuting, rigorous cleaning of workplaces, distribution of personal protective equipment, testing of suspected cases, measuring body temperature and fast testing on pre-shipment for oil platforms, medical monitoring and access to telemedicine services.
Brazilian governmental authorities, in turn, implemented a set of measures to face the economic side effects that paralyzed world activities, aiming at helping the productive sector, mainly: (a) Federal Government measures - (i) PIS/Cofins and INSS-Companies’ Contribution - collections from April and May were postponed to August and October; (ii) FGTS - collections from March to May 2020 were postponed to July 2020, with payment in six equal installments; (iii) System S (employer contributions to social entities that train and support employees) - 50% reduction in rates from April to June 2020; and (iv) IOF - reduction from 3% to zero in certain operations carried out from April to July 2020; (b) State of Pernambuco measures - (i) ICMS on import of fuel - deferral of up to 30 days.
As a result of the abrupt reduction in the demand and prices of oil and fuel, the Company adopted a set of measures aiming at reducing costs, postponing cash outflows and optimizing its working capital, in order to ensure its financial strength and resilience of its businesses. The main measures are:
· |
Draw down of revolving credit lines, amounting to US$ 8,010, as well as other lines in domestic banking market, in the total amount of US$ 698; |
· |
postponement of payment of dividends declared based on 2019 earnings (note 28); |
· |
postponement of judicial deposits to 2021, mainly relating to tax proceedings; |
· |
reduction and postponement of expenses with human resources, with emphasis on: (i) postponement of payment for the 2019 Performance Award Program; (ii) postponement of the payment of 30% of the total monthly remuneration of the Board of Directors, President, Executive Officers and upper management, and between 10% to 30% of the monthly remuneration of lower management and consultants; and (iii) temporary change in workday regime from shift turn and stand-by work to administrative regime for about 3,200 employees; |
· |
reduction of capital expenditures scheduled for 2020 from US$ 12 billion to US$ 8.5 billion, mainly due to the postponement of exploratory activities, interconnection of wells and construction of production and refining facilities, and the depreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar; |
· |
reduction of 200 thousand bpd of oil production from April 2020 (included the reduction of 100 thousands bpd announced in the end of March 2020), and a reduction in the utilization factor of refineries from 79% to 60%, allowing the maintenance of reasonable surplus in the storage capacity, aiming at avoiding the adoption of costly measures such as the chartering of ships to store liquids. However, with the evolution of the demand for our products performing better than expected, the Company opted for the gradual return to the previous level of average oil production, accompanied by an increase in the utilization factor of the refining facilities; |
11
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
PETROBRAS
(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
· |
reduction in projected operating expenses for 2020, with an additional decrease of US$ 2 billion, mainly through: (i) hibernation of platforms operating in shallow waters, with higher lifting costs per barrel, and for which, due to the drop in oil prices, the Company estimates negative cash flows; (ii) lower expenses with stoppages in wells and optimization of production logistics; and (iii) postponement of new relevant contracts for a period of 90 days; |
· |
negotiation efforts with suppliers in order to obtain postponement of cash outflows, the cancellation or suspension of certain contracts, postponement of deliveries of materials and services, reductions in price and scope of services. Regarding the postponement of agreed deliveries of materials, no cases have been identified that put advances to suppliers at risk. In the negotiations involving the cancellation or suspension of contracts, no facts have been observed that give rise to the accounting for additional obligations or penalties for the Company; |
· |
as a result of the extraordinary circumstance and the structural reduction in the demand for natural gas in the Brazilian market, the Company declared force majeure in the agreement for the purchase of natural gas related to the Manati field, as provided for in the contract. The Company is also negotiating with other agents in the natural gas chain aiming at reducing the effects resulting from the pandemic. Petrobras is constantly monitoring the current scenario and its developments on the gas market, reinforcing that, given the gravity, unpredictability and unprecedentedly of the subject, actions by all agents in the natural gas chain are necessary in order to reduce the impacts on the sector and, consequently, on the society. |
In addition, the global adverse scenario encouraged the Company to revise its top metric relating to indebtedness, contained in the Strategic Plan 2020-2024, replacing the Net debt / Adjusted EBITDA ratio with the Gross debt. The target approved for the Gross debt for 2020 is US$ 87 billion, the same level as 2019.
As a result of the implementation of the aforementioned measures, the Company, after simulating several stress scenarios, estimates that will be able to balance its financing and its cash flows. Thus, management believes that it has adequate resources to continue its operations for at least 12 months after the reporting date and, therefore, the going concern principle is applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements.
3.3. Effects on these unaudited consolidated interim financial statements
The impacts of COVID-19 pandemic on the economic environment were considered in the preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements. Information on key estimates and judgments that require a high level of judgment and complexity in their applications and that could materially affect the Company's financial condition and results, were disclosed in the financial statements of December 31, 2019 and revised for this interim financial statements, in order to determine possible changes in assumptions and judgments arising from current market conditions.
The results of the revision of these assumptions are presented below:
· |
oil prices and expectations for the world economy growth have presented a consistent decline. With the impacts of COVID-19 on the global economy, the demand for oil products was also severely affected in the first months of the year. Accordingly, short, medium and long-term estimated macroeconomic scenarios and price assumptions are no longer compatible with those approved in the 2020-2024 Strategic Plan. For the long-term, in some scenarios, the Company expects these shocks on the economy and on consumer habits will be permanent, impacting the demand for oil products and, hence, Brent prices. This premise is based on the expectation that certain solutions adopted during social isolation will be preserved and become permanent to some degree. As a result, the Company brought forward the approval of a new set of assumptions for the 2021-2025 Strategic Plan. With the new assumptions, impairment losses were recognized in the first quarter of 2020, in the amount of US$ 13,371 (note 20); |
· |
expected exports were impacted by the effects arising from the oil price shock and the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, a portion of highly probable future exports whose exchange rate variations were designated in hedge relationships are no longer considered highly probable, but are still expected to occur, and as a consequence the hedge relationships were revoked, in the amount of US$ 35,774, significantly increasing in the Company's U.S. dollar/real exposure at March 31, 2020. In addition, a portion of exports designated for hedge relationships for the months of April to December 2020 are no longer expected, and consequently a portion of unrealized losses were reclassified from Other comprehensive income to the Statement of Income in the first quarter of 2020, in the amount of US$ 510 (note 30.2); |
· |
inventories adjusted to net realizable value, accounting for a US$ 264 loss within cost of sales (note 11); |
12
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
PETROBRAS
(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
· |
recognition of expected credit losses (ECL) on the Company's financial assets that are not measured at fair value through profit or loss considered estimated impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. For financial assets whose counterparties have ratings published by credit risk agencies, when already reflecting the effects of the pandemic, the information was used to calculate the ECL. For other financial assets, in general, the expected effects of COVID-19 pandemic were incorporated into the ECL by identifying the changes in default probability based on observable data by area of operation, type of product and region. No significant effects were identified; |
· |
deferred tax assets recognized at March 31, 2020 were assessed for recoverability based on projections of future taxable profits (note 12.2); |
· |
estimates of oil and gas reserves are prepared reflecting, in an integrated manner, the projects in the Company's Strategic Plan portfolio, technical uncertainties and assumptions such as prices and costs. At March 31, 2020, there was no change in the Company's Strategic Plan portfolio or in the Company’s reserves that impact these unaudited consolidated interim financial statements. In addition, estimation on the provision for decommissioning costs reflects, largely, obligations that will be realized in the medium and long-term. Such assumptions used for these estimates are supported by the Company's Strategic Plan and annual reserves estimation process, which are based on long-term visions. Thus, the assumptions for the provision have remained consistent with year end given the long term nature of these costs; |
· |
revenue recognition from contracts with customers had no changes in its assumptions. The expectation of satisfaction of the obligation by the customer remains at the maturity of each operation, considered highly probable, subject only to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent set forth in the sales contracts. The Company’s customers gave no indication about the intention to breach or revise the terms and conditions of contracts in effect as of March 31, 2020; |
· |
the Company's litigation includes no cases related to COVID-19 with potential financial risk that directly impact this interim financial information. However, the Company is aware of some recent labor actions filed by certain unions, whose claims are related to the resilience plan recently announced to reduce expenses, for which the Company considers the likelihood of loss possible or remote, and no disbursement is expected. |

In the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, sales to BR Distribuidora represent more than 10% of the Company sales revenues, mainly associated with the refining, transportation and marketing segment.
5.1. Remaining performance obligations
The Company has current sales contracts with original expected duration of more than 1 year, in which the volumes of goods or services for future sales are determined, as well as their respective payment terms.
The estimated remaining values of these contracts at March 31, 2020 presented below are based on the contractually agreed future sales volumes, as well as prices prevailing at March 31, 2020 or practiced in recent sales when they reflect the more directly observable information:
14
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
PETROBRAS
(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
The revenues will be recognized once goods are transferred and services are provided to the customers and their measurement and timing of recognition will be subject to future demands, changes in commodities prices, exchange rates and other market factors.
The table above does not include information on contracts with original expected duration of one year or less, such as spot-market contracts, variable considerations which are constrained, and information on contracts only establishing general terms and conditions (Master Agreements), for which volumes and prices will only be defined in subsequent contracts.
In addition, electricity sales are mainly driven by demands to generate electricity from thermoelectric power plants, as and when requested by the Brazilian National Electric System Operator (ONS). These requests are substantially affected by Brazilian hydrological conditions, thus, the table above presents mainly fixed amounts corresponding to the electricity contractually available to customers in these operations.
5.2. Contract liabilities
The balance of contract liabilities carried on the statement of financial position at March 31, 2020 amounted to US$ 99 (US$ 128 as of December 31, 2019). This amount is classified as other current liabilities and primarily comprises advances from customers in ship and take or pay contracts to be recognized as revenue based on future sales of natural gas or following the non-exercise of the right by the customer.

In 2020, the additions include a provision of US$ 52 on receivables in foreign currency, basically resulting from the 29% exchange rate devaluation in first quarter of 2020, as well as the recording of a supplementary provision arising from the Covid-19 (US$ 18).
In the year ended December 31, 2019, the write-offs primarily relate to the termination of a lawsuit relating to the electricity sector.

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized a US$ 342 loss within cost of sales, adjusting inventories to net realizable value (a US$ 41 gain as a reversal of cost of sales in the first quarter of 2019) primarily due to changes in international prices of crude oil and oil products.
At March 31, 2020, the Company had pledged crude oil and oil products volumes as collateral for the Terms of Financial Commitment (TFC) signed by Petrobras and Petros in 2008, presenting no significant changes when compared to the amount reported at December 31, 2019.

The Company conducts annual analysis to determine the recognition of deferred tax assets in the financial statements. Exceptionally, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on the Company's operations, a new study was carried out based on the Strategic Plan approved by the Board of Directors, with an update on the main assumptions such as Brent prices and exchange rate. This new study confirmed the existence of future taxable profits to support the maintenance of deferred tax assets, with realization expected to occur from 2021 to 2027.
The balance of deferred tax assets increased in the first quarter of 2020 mainly due to the foreign exchange variation on finance debt recorded in other comprehensive income, relating to the hedge accounting, and to impairment losses.

For the first quarter of 2020, the Company's contribution to the defined contribution portion of the Petros Plan 2 was US$ 50 (US$ 61 for the first quarter of 2019) recognized in the statement of income.
Financial statements for the PPSP-R and PPSP-NR plans for 2019 were approved by the Executive Council of Petros on March 18, 2020, presenting an accumulated deficit of US$ 517 (R$ 2,309 million) and US$ 245 (R$ 1,093 million), respectively, according to the general accepted accounting standards for the post-retirement sector, regulated in Brazil by the Post-Retirement Benefit Federal Council – CNPC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
PETROBRAS
(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
The deficits were computed based on annual actuarial review carried out by an independent actuary and were already considered in the Company’s audited financial statements ended December 31, 2019.
The table below presents the reconciliation of the deficit of Petros Plan registered by Petros Foundation as of December 31, 2019, according to the standards issued by CNPC and according to international accounting standards (IAS 19):
New Deficit Settlement Plan (New PED)
On April 28, 2020, the New Deficit Settlement Plan for the plans Petros Renegotiated (PPSP-R) and Petros Non Renegotiated (PPSP-NR) was approved by the Secretariat of Management and Governance of the State-owned Companies (SEST) and, on May 5, 2020, the Superintendency of Post-retirement Benefits (PREVIC) approved it.
The New PED, which covers 2015 and 2018 deficits and incorporates 2019 results, amounts to US$ 6.5 billion (R$ 33.7 billion) as of December 31, 2019, of which US$ 6.2 billion (R$ 32.1 billion) arises from PED 2015 and the remaining relates mainly to the accumulated deficit of 2018 and 2019. Of the total amount, US$ 3 billion (R$ 15.6 billion) will be paid by Petrobras, in compliance with contributory parity provided for by relevant legislation. The rest of the deficit will be paid by other sponsors and participants of the PPSP-R and PPSP-NR plans.
Recalculated extraordinary contributions are estimated to start in June 2020, and the collection period is lifelong, according to legislation.
The independent actuaries are carrying out the recalculation of the actuarial liabilities, and the effects will be recognized in Petrobras' financial statements in the second quarter of 2020. The effects resulting from changes in regulations will be recognized in the Statement of Income, while those related to the recalculation of extraordinary contributions will be recognized in Equity within Other Comprehensive Income.
15. Provisions for legal proceedings
15.1. Provisions for legal proceedings, judicial deposits and contingent liabilities
The Company recognizes provisions based on the best estimate of the costs of proceedings for which it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required and that can be reliably estimated. These proceedings mainly include:

· |
Tax claims including: (i) claims relating to Brazilian federal tax credits applied that were disallowed; and (ii) alleged misappropriation of VAT (ICMS) tax credits; and (iii) fines for non-compliance with accessory tax obligation; |

|
The main contingent liabilities are:
· |
Tax matters comprising: i) withholding income tax (IRRF), Contribution of Intervention in the Economic Domain (CIDE), Social Integration Program (PIS) and Contribution to Social Security Financing (COFINS) on remittances for payments of vessel charters; (ii) income from foreign subsidiaries and associates located outside Brazil not included in the computation of taxable income (IRPJ and CSLL); (iii) requests to compensate federal taxes disallowed by the Brazilian Federal Tax Authority; and (iv) collection and crediting of ICMS by several states; |
· |
Labor matters comprising mainly actions requiring a review of the methodology by which the minimum compensation based on an employee's position and work schedule (Remuneração Mínima por Nível e Regime - RMNR) is calculated; |
· |
Civil matters comprising: (i) litigations regarding Sete Brasil; (ii) administrative proceedings challenging an ANP order requiring Petrobras to pay additional special participation fees and royalties (production taxes) with respect to several fields; and (iii) a public civil action that discusses the alleged illegality of the gas supply made by the Company to its Nitrogen Fertilizer Production Unit. |
· |
Environmental matters comprising indemnities for material and collective moral damages to the environment, material damages to the affected communities and IBAMA's environmental fines related to the upstream. |
In the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, the main changes in the balance of contingent liabilities are related to the following reductions: (i) US$ 464 of civil matters involving contractual issues; and (ii) a US$ 471 reduction related to actions to collect differences in ICMS rates, resulting from sales of jet fuel to airlines in the domestic market, for which the likelihood of losses is now deemed remote, since state and federal laws recognized the amnesty on such debts; partially offset by inflation indexation.
15.4. Class action and related proceedings
In the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, there were no events that changed the assessment and judgment of arbitration and other legal proceedings in Argentina. As for the class action in the Netherlands, the only relevant progress that took place in the period relates to the decision on January 29, 2020, detailed in note 19.4.2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

17. The “Lava Jato (Car Wash) Operation” and its effects on the Company
The Company has monitored the progress of investigations under the “Lava Jato” Operation and, in the preparation of these unaudited interim financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2020, did not identify any additional information that would affect the adopted calculation methodology to write off, in the third quarter of 2014, amounts overpaid for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment. The Company will continue to monitor these investigations for additional information in order to assess their potential impact on the adjustment made.
In the the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, new leniency and plea agreements entitled the Company to receive funds with respect to compensation for damages, in the amount of US$ 21, accounted for as other income and expenses (no funds received in the same period of 2019). Thus, the total cumulative amount recovered from the “Lava Jato” investigation through March 31, 2020 is US$ 1,124 (US$ 1,103 through December 31, 2019).
17.1. U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission - CFTC
In May 2019, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) contacted Petrobras with an inquiry regarding trading activities related to the Lava Jato Operation. Petrobras reiterates that it continues to cooperate with the regulatory authorities, including the CFTC, regarding any inquiry.
17.2. Order of civil inquiry - Brazilian Public Prosecutor’s Office
On December 15, 2015, the State of São Paulo Public Prosecutor’s Office issued the Order of Civil Inquiry 01/2015, establishing a civil proceeding to investigate the existence of potential damages caused by Petrobras to investors in the Brazilian stock market. The Brazilian Attorney General’s Office (Procuradoria Geral da República) assessed this civil proceeding and determined that the São Paulo Public Prosecutor’s Office has no authority over this matter, which must be presided over by the Brazilian Public Prosecutor’s Office. The Company has provided all relevant information requested by the authorities.

18.2. Capitalization rate used to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization
The capitalization rate used to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization was the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings that were outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, the capitalization rate was 6.36% p.a. (5.90% p.a. for the same period of 2019).

19. Intangible assets
19.1. By class of assets
All agreements whose signature bonuses were paid in the last quarter of 2019, were signed with the regulatory authorities in the first quarter of 2020.
The Company annually tests its assets for impairment or when there is an indication that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.
During the first quarter of 2020, two events triggered significant and adverse effects on the oil and oil products market: (i) the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, with a sharp reduction in the circulation of people and in the world economic activity, causing a shock on demand of these products, and (ii) failure in negotiations between members of Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its allies, led by Russia, to define production levels, which contributed to an increase in the global oil supply with a reduction in price in early March.
These events led the Company to adopt a set of measures aiming at preserving cash generation, in order to reinforce its financial strength and resilience of its businesses, as well as to revise, with the approval of its Board of Directors, the key assumptions of its current Strategic Plan, such as Brent prices, exchange rates, oil product spreads, among others.
34
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
PETROBRAS
(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
Estimates of oil and gas reserves are prepared reflecting, in an integrated manner, the projects in the Company's Strategic Plan portfolio, technical uncertainties and assumptions such as prices and costs. At March 31, 2020, there was no change in the Company's Strategic Plan portfolio or in the Company’s reserves that impact these unaudited consolidated interim financial statements.
Under this scenario, the Company assessed the recoverability of the carrying amounts of its assets and, in the first quarter of 2020, impairment losses were recognized in the amount of US$ 13,371, primarily due to:
(i) |
US$ 11,798 relating to the effect of updated assumptions in the estimation of the recoverable amount of several E&P fields, notably in the following Cash Generating Units (CGU): Roncador, Marlim Sul, North group, Albacora Leste, Berbigão-Sururu group, CVIT group and Mexilhão; and |
(ii) |
US$ 1,356 relating to the hibernation of fields and platforms in shallow waters, affecting CGUs North group, Ceará-Mar group and Ubarana group, as well as Caioba, Guaricema and Camorim fields. |
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized impairment reversals amounting to US$ 7.
The table below shows the impairment losses and a reversal, recognized within the statement of income in the first quarter of 2020:
20.1. Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
20.1.1. Revision of Cash Generating Units
During the first quarter of 2020, management identified and assessed change in CGU North group (E&P Segment) excluding platforms PCH-1, PCH-2 and PNA-2, and fields of Anequim, Bagre, Cherne, Congro , Garoupa, Malhado, Namorado, Parati and Viola, who had their activities hibernated, with no expected resumption. Currently, this CGU is formed by Marlim, Albacora and Voador fields and remaining platforms.
20.1.2. Planning assumptions used on impairment testing
The cash flow projections used to measure the value in use of the CGUs at March 31, 2020, approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, were mainly based on the following updated assumptions for average Brent prices and Brazilian real/U.S. dollar average exchange rates:

Changes in these assumptions consider a slow recovery in demand and a moderate change in habits in developed economies, among other variables. The Company expects a lower level of demand in the long-term, taking into account:
· |
structural change in the world economy, with permanent effects arising from this economic shock, including changes observed in consumer habits, which the Company believes may become permanent; |
· |
increased world oil inventories, slowing down the rebalancing of supply and demand; and |
· |
oil consuming industries, given the new scenario, will not keep their previously projected demands in the long-term, reducing consumption levels. |
20.1.3. Information on the main impairment losses
Information on the main impairment losses and reversals of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are described below:
a) Producing properties in Brazil
Impairment assessment for producing properties in Brazil resulted in US$ 13,154 impairment losses. Cash flow projections were based on financial budgets/forecasts approved by management and the post-tax discount rates (excluding inflation) derived from the WACC for the E&P business of 7.3% p.a. at March 31, 2020 (6.7% p.a. at December 31, 2019). This amount comprises:
(i) |
Impairment losses in the amount of US$11,798 mainly related to the following CGUs and corporate assets that provide service in these fields, reflecting the new key assumptions for the medium and long-term vision, mainly drop in Brent prices, depreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar and retractions in Brazilian GDP and oil demand; |

(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
The Company decided to hibernate a corporate building, in the state of Bahia, due to its vacancy in the quarter, resulting in a US$ 161 impairment loss in the right of use.
SIX – shale plant
The Company recognized a US$ 43 impairment loss on this asset, due to the drop in the estimates for fuel oil prices, which are linked to the Brent prices, whose projections were revised by the Company this quarter. The post-tax discount rate in constant currency applied to the refining sector in Brazil is 6.2% p.a.
20.2. Assets most sensitive to future impairment
Whenever the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU falls below the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the carrying amount to the recoverable amount. The following table presents the assets and CGUs most sensitive to future impairment losses, presenting recoverable amounts close to their current carrying amounts. The analysis presented below considers the estimated impairment loss if there was a 10% reduction in the recoverable value of the CGUs, arising from changes in material assumptions:

20.3. Assets classified as held for sale
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized an US$ 2 impairment reversal, following the Board of Directors approval on the sale of Tucano Sul group of fields, arising from its fair value, net of disposal expenses.
In the same period of 2019, the Company recognized a US$ 29 impairment reversal on assets classified as held for sale, mainly relating to sale of interest in Maromba field.
20.4. Investments in associates and joint ventures (including goodwill)
Value in use is generally used for impairment test of investments in associates and joint ventures (including goodwill). The basis for estimates of cash flow projections includes: projections covering a period of 5 to 12 years, zero-growth rate perpetuity, budgets, forecasts and assumptions approved by management and a post-tax discount rate derived from the WACC or the CAPM models, when applicable.
20.4.1. Investment in publicly traded associate
In July 2019, with the additional sale of the Company’s interest in the subsidiary Petrobras Distribuidora (BR Distribuidora), carried out through a secondary public offering (follow-on), BR Distribuidora became an associate. Considering the fair value as the market value of its shares, at December 31, 2019, the Company estimated this investment was recoverable. However, at March 31, 2020, the market value was below the equity-accounted investment, requiring the calculation of the value in use. The post-tax discount rate in constant currency applied was 6.6% p.a. As the value in use of BR Distribuidora is higher than the equity-accounted investment at March 31, 2020, no impairment loss was accounted for in the period.
20.4.2. Impairment losses on equity-method investments
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized impairment losses amounting to US$ 53 from equity-accounted investments (a US$ 2 impairment reversal in the same period of 2019), mainly in joint venture MP Gulf of Mexico (US$ 59), due to the revised Brent prices projections. The post-tax discount rate in constant currency applied for the E&P segment in the USA was 6.0% p.a.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company held treasury shares, of which 222,760 are common shares and 72,909 are preferred shares.
28.2. Distributions to shareholders
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions recommended by the World Health Organization and imposed by authorities regarding agglomerations and meetings, the Company’s Board of Directions approved the postponement of the General Shareholders Meeting previously scheduled for April 27, 2020 and the payment of remaining dividends based on the 2019 earnings. This postponement is one of the measures adopted by the Company to preserve its cash, due to the pandemic of COVID-19 and the shock of oil prices.
On March 31, 2020, the consolidated remaining balance of dividends based on the 2019 earnings, bearing interest at Selic rate (Brazilian short-term interest rate), is US$ 348.

(*) Petrobras' ADSs are equivalent to two shares. |
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Petrobras by the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the period.
Diluted earnings (losses) per share are calculated by adjusting the net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of Petrobras and the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the period taking into account the effects of all dilutive potential shares (equity instrument or contractual arrangements that are convertible into shares).
Basic and diluted earnings (losses) are identical as the Company has no potential share in issue.

In order to reduce exposure to foreign exchange risk arising from financial instruments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, derivative transactions were carried out in the period. The depreciation of these currencies, especially the euro and the pound sterling, associated with the expressive depreciation of the real, explains the increased amounts of collateral associated with currency derivatives. As of March 31, 2020, the position of these guarantees was accounted for as other current assets (US$ 167) and other non-current assets (US$ 420).
A sensitivity analysis of the derivative financial instruments for the different types of market risks as of March 31, 2020 is set out as follows:
30.1. Risk management of crude oil and oil products prices
The Company is usually exposed to commodity price cycles, although it may use derivative instruments to hedge exposures related to prices of products purchased and sold to fulfill operational needs and in specific circumstances depending on business environment analysis and assessment of whether the targets of the Strategic Plan are being met.
Crude oil
In March 2020, in order to preserve the Company's liquidity, Petrobras approved a hedge strategy for exported oil already shipped but not priced mainly due to the high volatility of the current context, both due to the effects of the oil price drop and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global oil consumption.
As a result of this strategy, from April 2020, transactions using forward and futures contracts were carried out. Forward transactions do not require initial disbursement, whereas future transactions require margin deposits, depending on the volume contracted. In the first quarter of 2020, there is no gain or loss related to crude oil derivatives.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
PETROBRAS
(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
In the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized a a US$ 94 loss relating to over-the-counter put options referenced in Brent oil prices, due to the increase in the commodity price in the international market; an US$ 18 loss on hedges related to diesel prices by using non-deliverable forwards (NDF); and a US$ 3 gain on hedges related to gasoline prices also by using NDF.
Other commodity derivative transactions
Petrobras, by use of its assets, positions and market knowledge from its operations in Brazil and abroad, occasionally seeks to optimize some of its commercial operations in the international market, with the use of commodity derivatives to manage price risk. Changes in operations contracted for other commodities derivatives resulted in a US$ 232 gain in the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 (a US$ 115 loss in the same period of 2019).
30.2. Foreign exchange risk management
a) Cash Flow Hedge involving the Company’s future exports
The carrying amounts, the fair value as of March 31, 2020, and a schedule of expected reclassifications to the statement of income of cumulative losses recognized in other comprehensive income (shareholders’ equity) based on a US$ 1.00 / R$ 5.1987 exchange rate are set out below:

In the first quarter of 2020, highly probable future exports were impacted by the effects of the oil price war and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Thus, a portion of exports designated for hedge relationships are no longer considered highly probable, but are still expected to occur, and as a consequence the hedge relationships were revoked at March 31, 2020, in the amount of US$ 35,774. The foreign exchange variation accounted for these operations within other comprehensive income up to the end of the quarter remains in shareholders' equity, and will be reclassified to the statement of income when exports occur. These revocations were responsible for the relevant increase in Dollar/Real exposure, which at the end of this quarter was negative by US$ 40,999 (as presented in item (c) below).
In addition, a portion of exports designated for hedge relationships from April to December 2020 are no longer expected to occur, and the corresponding foreign exchange variation were recycled from shareholder’s equity to the statement of income in the first quarter of 2020, in the amount of US$ 510.
In the first quarter of 2020, the Company also recognized a US$ 1 loss within foreign exchange gains (losses) due to ineffectiveness (a US$ 5 loss in 2019).
As of March 31, 2020, the ratio of future exports for which cash flow hedge accounting was designated to the highly probable future exports is 100% (91.2% as of December 31, 2019).
A roll-forward schedule of cumulative foreign exchange losses recognized in other comprehensive income as of March 31, 2020 is set out below:

Additional hedging relationships may be revoked or additional reclassification adjustments from equity to the statement of income may occur as a result of changes in forecasted export prices and export volumes following a revision of the Company’s strategic plan. Based on a sensitivity analysis considering a US$ 10/barrel decrease in Brent prices stress scenario, when compared to the Brent price projections in our Strategic Plan 2020-2024 revised in the first quarter of 2020, would indicate a reclassification adjustment from equity to the statement of income in the amount of US$ 2.2 billion.

b) Foreign exchange contracts
Cross currency swap – Pounds Sterling x Dollar
The Company recognized a US$ 335 loss in the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 (a US$ 46 gain in the same period of 2019) arising from this strategy, recorded in finance income (expense). The Company does not expect to settle these swaps before their expiration dates.
Non Deliverable Forward (NDF) – Euro x Dollar and Pounds Sterling x Dollar
The Company recognized a US$ 97 loss in the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 (a US$ 81 loss in the same period of 2019) arising from this strategy, recorded in finance income (expense). The Company does not expect to settle these NDFs before their expiration dates.
Swap contracts – National consumer price index (IPCA) x Brazilian interbank offering rate (CDI) and CDI x Dollar
The mark to market of IPCA x CDI swap operations registered a US$ 47 loss in the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, while the mark to market of CDI x USD swap operations presented a US$ 239 loss in the same period, both recorded as finance income (expense). The Company does not expect to settle these swaps before their expiration dates.
Changes in future interest rate curves (CDI) may have an impact on the Company's results, due to the market value of these swap contracts. A sensitivity analysis on CDI with a constant increase (parallel shock) of 100 basis points, all other variables remaining constant, would result in a US$ 3 gain, while a constant reduction (parallel shock) of 100 basis points, would result in a US$ 1 loss.
c) Sensitivity analysis for foreign exchange risk on financial instruments
A sensitivity analysis is set out below, showing the probable scenario for foreign exchange risk on financial instruments, computed based on external data along with stressed scenarios (a 25% and a 50% change in the foreign exchange rates), except for assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, when transacted in a currency equivalent to their respective functional currencies.

(*) On March 31, 2020, the probable scenario was computed based on the following risks: R$ x U.S. Dollar - a 2.9% appreciation of the Real; Euro x U.S. Dollar: a 1.0% depreciation of the Euro; Pound Sterling x U.S. Dollar: a 2.02% depreciation of the Pound Sterling; Real x Euro: a 3.9% appreciation of the Real; and Real x Pound Sterling - a 4.8% appreciation of the Real. |
30.3. Interest rate risk management
The Company considers that interest rate risk does not create a significant exposure and therefore, preferably does not use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk, except for specific situations faced by certain subsidiaries of Petrobras.
An analysis of the impact of the interest rate shock to which the Company's debts are indexed indicates that, for a 1% interest rate shock (or 100 basis points), the increase in interest expenses would be US$ 231. Due to the recent fluctuations, the impact of a 2% shock (or 200 basis points) was also tested, for which the increase in interest expenses would be US$ 462.
30.4. Liquidity risk
Following its liability management strategy, the Company regularly evaluates market conditions and may enter into transactions to repurchase its own securities or those of its affiliates, through a variety of means, including tender offers, make whole exercises and open market repurchases, in order to improve its debt repayment profile and cost of debt.
Measures to protect the Company's liquidity
As a result of the abrupt reduction in the demand and prices of oil and fuel, caused by the impact of the escalation of the COVID-19 pandemic all over the world, in the same time of an increase in oil supply, the Company adopted a set of measures to reduce cash outflows in a scenario of uncertainty, in order to ensure its financial strength and the resilience of its businesses.
The measures adopted by the Company to protect liquidity are described in note 3.
31. Related-party transactions
The Company has a related-party transactions policy, which is annually revised and approved by the Board of Directors, and is applicable to all the Petrobras Group, in accordance with the Company’s by-laws.

31.2. Petroleum and alcohol account - receivables from the Brazilian Government
On March 11, 2020, the Brazilian Federal Government filed an Objection to the Judicial Sentence on this case. Thus, Petrobras was demanded to express its opinion on this matter.
The inflation indexation based on IPCA-E, claimed by the Company, remains classified as a contingent asset, amounting to US$ 230 as of March 31, 2020.
As of March 31, 2020, the balance of receivables related to the Petroleum and Alcohol accounts is US$ 237 (US$ 304 as of December 31, 2019), recorded within non-current assets.

PETROBRAS
(Expressed in millions of US Dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, charges related to compensation of the board members and executive officers of the Petrobras group amounted to US$ 3.6 (US$ 6 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019).
On September 30, 2019, the Company’s Extraordinary General Meeting approved a change in the overall compensation for executive officers and board members, given the creation of the Executive Office of Digital Transformation and Innovation, setting the total compensation threshold at US$ 6.6 (R$ 34.2 million) from April 2019 to March 2020.
The compensation of the Advisory Committees to the Board of Directors is apart from the fixed compensation set for the Board Members and, therefore, has not been classified under compensation of Petrobras’ key management personnel.
In accordance with Brazilian regulations applicable to companies controlled by the Brazilian Federal Government, Board members who are also members of the Audit Committee or Audit Committee of the Petrobras Conglomerate are only compensated with respect to their Audit Committee duties. The total compensation concerning these members was US$ 123 thousand for the first quarter of 2020 (US$ 148 thousand with related charges). For the same period of 2019, the total compensation concerning these members was US$ 68 (US$ 81 thousand with related charges).

Incentive Retirement Program
On April 7, 2020, the Board of Directors, in addition to approving adjustments to the current severance programs, with an additional provision amounting to US$ 248 (R$ 1,290 million) foreseen for the second quarter of 2020, approved the creation of the Incentive Retirement Program (Programa de Aposentadoria Incentivada - PAI), a new voluntary severance program, with enrollment from May 6 to July 31, aimed at employees who are eligible to retire under the public pension program and, after the promulgation of the public pension reform, approved in the second half of 2019, were unable to participate in PDV 2019, effective until June 2020.
The recognition of provision for expenses with this plan will occur to the extent that the employees join the program.
Agreements for the Equalization of Expenses and Volumes
On April 30, 2020, Petrobras and partner companies in E&P consortiums in Lula, Sépia and Atapu fields signed the Agreements for the Equalization of Expenses and Volumes (Acordos para a Equalização de Gastos e Volumes - AEGV), relating to the expenses incurred and the entitled revenues from the volume produced by each partner from the beginning of the concession until the date of effectiveness of the Production Individualization Agreements (Acordos de Individualização da Produção - AIP) of these shared deposits.
As a result of the equalization arising from the increase in the interest in these deposits and, consequently, in joint operations entities related to them, Petrobras will pay the partners the total net amount estimated at US$ 472, still subject to price adjustments until the date of its settlement, expected to occur in the second quarter of 2020.
Operational performance perspectives
The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the sharp drop in economic activity and the Brent price shock reflected in the Company's results in April 2020. Due to the lower economic activity and to the social isolation measures, the Company had a reduction in the volume of sales of oil products in the domestic market, mainly in jet fuel, gasoline and diesel, an approximate reduction of 90%, 50% and 30%, respectively, when compared to April 2019, affecting the utilization factor of the refining facilities. In addition, we had lower sales realization prices, due to the sharp drop in international prices.

These impacts were partially offset by the higher volume of oil exports. Oil production remained stable, without significant impacts. The financial effects in April 2020 could not yet be verified, as the Company's accounting and tax closing process is ongoing.
